Like I said on the previous thread Jules and I'm not sure if you checked, but if you go into the the menu and 'check' you can see how many keys are active. For example on my brothers car it says 2/2 and he has both keys.

Will do that when i get it back

I'm really sorry to hear you Situation jules and hope you get it all sorted quick. I'm sure the insurance will pick up the bill as I'm pretty certain barrats won't, it's not their liability. On the other hand, you mght probably get them to invest in some better security. A few more cameras in the car park etc.

Hope all is well and you can get your life back together (lack of sleep is NOT to be underestimated) 

Its looking like they will mate, they sold us a 'secure car park' and the week before it happened one of their staff told everyone there is no CCTV. We shall see though.

I missed your first thread...let me just make this clear...someone is stealing your car? going for a joy ride and then returning it..?

Seems they think i wouldnt notice and would have been asleep, clearly hoped they would get more use.

What area do you live in jules?

Croydon mate. Its some housing association scum, most likely not from this country (jamaican from what i can work out from other people)

What a nightmare and sorry to hear about this.

Not sure if you are remapped but if you are and have REVO you can use the SPS+ to put the car into anti-theft mode.  Even if the scum have your keys or a cloned keys they will not be able to get anywhere.

REVO and Select Plus would be my recomendation too.  Forget the clamps etc.

Not quite mate.  Anti Theft Mode with the Select Plus allows the engine to be started but then when you try to input any throttle the revs ease down until the engine cuts out.

Can't remember if I read your last thread or not but either way, it's gutting. Very gutting mate.

Hope it all works out well in the end.


The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

if you turn it off and then try and start it agin does it??  I though it didnt start - unless it only starts as there is fuel in there to burn

AH!  sure that has changed - or maybe it hasnt.. I think I found the next time you try and start it when turned off it doesnt always catch straight away - always worked mind you.

Just dont have a sticker on sayin 'Revo' though, as if it did this nothings stopping someone using another SPS  :wink:
